Heners_UK posted:I know what I'm about to say is part of PMing... but loving hell, vendors, appreciate that I occasionally want a straight loving answer without having to spend half an hour describing my project and all the use cases. I get it that you need to know the background but it's possible to take that to far and I know when I'm being fished for Professional Services hours. Did it really have to take that long to organise some relevant staff training for me and my team? I have the tendency to ask the question I need an answer to without giving the full story and picture of where that question is coming from and I notice people are never able to answer it. Which I recognize partly is that I have been thinking about this issue for a while and have zeroed in on the missing piece that someone can fill me in on, but they have not been thinking about this at all and are completely confused or can't even recall the information. Mostly I do it because that is what I appreciate - a straight question that I can reply to without worry of any repercussion. After typing that I'm not sure if it's that relevant but I've decided people either don't know enough about what you are looking for and want to tailor the response or they are afraid of what the answer might mean for them, as if it's some kind of secret you're not allowed to hear. And yes, it's a lonely gig sometimes where you're talking to people often, but rarely exchanging ideas with a peer.
